I just picked up a new toy and wondered what the "experts" thought about:
1.-Kel tec
2.- 32 caliber

All opinions are welcome. We learn by listening.

    100% of the time carry pistol.
    And it works.

    I have a P-32 and like it very much. Not the best cartridge, but better than having nothing when better ones are too big to carry, especially in the summer. Have shot several ammo brands w/o probs. Carry mine with Win silvertips. I added the (too expensive) one round mag extension and like it much better. Also, I dabbed some florescent paint on the sights - helps a lot.

    Thanks Guys. I am sold. I carried this one all day. I had to remind myself it was there. KelTec has my vote!

    Forgot to mention that I use an Uncle Mike's size 1 pocket holster. Works great. Keeps the lint out and the gun vertical. Holster exterior has a band of non-slip material which helps to keep the holster from moving around if drawing is necessary.

    Good luck!

    I bought one and I love it. I'd feel better about a larger cartridge, but then the gun would get bigger, too. I also bought the 1-round magazine extension and it helps with the grip a lot.

    uh, same, same.

    bought one for my wife- loaded it with Win Silver Tips- (and yes, I do love my wife) I carry it more now than she does.

    isn't that cute?

    Sounds like a mutual admiration society here. I bought one, two different brands or ammo and took it to the range after oiling it a bit. Second mag of ammo and each subsequent mag had at least one mis feed. Not too sold on it yet. Not too sure I would bet my life on its reliability. Comments?

    I have a p-11 and a sub 2000 which is their 9mm rifle and both have never had a miss fire or hang up of any kind, I'm thinking about selling the rifle now but only because I picked up a AR15 in .223 with a extra upper in 9mm I haven't shoot the 9mm yet, but if it shoots like it should, I would think it would be better than the sub 2000

    Thanks again. This weekend is "range weekend". I'll be putting through its paces. I will let you know.

    Have a p-11 and it fires perfectly, though not good for any accurate shooting (freehand) past 9 yards- I like the glock for more distant shots.
